I never travel without my Stetson but the more I wear it the more I realise that no one wears hats any more. When I was a kid everybody wore hats especially in Texas but I get off the plane in Dallas now and I'm the only guy with a hat. It's amazing.
My faith inasmuch as I have any is more like a kind of Joseph Campbell thing and even that frequently finds itself tested to oblivion in siren waters.
